This is why you don't let Activision publish your game.
Yep, looks like every CoD for the past five years.
I can't believe they managed to make a montage of explosions and shooting look so boring.
And to think this will be one of the best selling games in the history of games (and at a €59.99 price tag).

To be fair, it's not that easy. Explosions themselves are boring, but the context and timing of a sequence make them exciting. That trailer just showed explosions, and I have no idea what they were about.
Michael Bay would be so proud.
I can't wait to play this overbudgeted mess of a game
'Gameplay' trailers are becoming less about gameplay and more about 'showing things that happen in game from the perspective of a spectator rather than the player's point of view.'
This.
Is.
Journalism.
At.
It's.
Finest.
I don't like the whole 'preorder and get this map' thing. A lot of people don't get to play it, and then it'll become 'Free Fall map disabled, someone doesn't have this dlc' whenever you play as some people don't like shelling out $10 for a single map

And it will somehow still break sale records, win awards and once again have a million players playing at the same time.
I'm not sure if it's 2013 or 2009 anymore.
loud and devoid of diversity

I mean since modern shooters and action flicks literally cramming set pieces down your throat, the impact of set pieces has kinda degraded.
[quote] The term setpiece is often used more broadly to describe any important dramatic or comedic highpoint in a film or story, particularly those that provide some kind of dramatic payoff, resolution, or transition.[/quote]
When there's set pieces every 10 minutes it's kinda lost any meaning of drama.

Call of Duty: Ghostbusters
THAT would be something I'd play

And to think that people here on facepunch will buy it
But guys, look at all those amazing reviews.
I really ask myself why people keep buying those games.
It's like a car brand releases new vehicle models every year which all look the same, have the same engine and the same comfort functions but with a different color and maybe different patterns in the seat cover. And people keep buying those.
I like these games, I've enjoyed them since the first, and they've always been fun.
It's cool that they're going for a whole 'America is not totally awesome' story this time, it's a nice change. Kinda wish they expanded upon the Strike Force stuff Black Ops 2 introduced, that was cool though really underwhelming in the content department.
Now five pages of 'it's literally exactly the same.'
They actually made a forest scene look brown. When it was pointing at the leaves.
incredible

People find the core gameplay so entertaining they think the pricetag's worth it just so that they can keep experience it in new settings, I suppose.
I must say I kind of like CoD. it's great on stressful days when you only have 10-15 minutes or so to kill, during which you still want stimulating entertainment. However, I also find it fun to play for extended periods of time together with friends. Really expensive for some reason, though.

Read a book.
[QUOTE=Grabigel;42607999]Read a book.[/QUOTE]
Oh, I do read, but when I do, I usually do it for several hours at a time. If I'm reading a text I find interesting, I usually think it's quite annoying to just stop doing so after such a short amount of time as 10 minutes. Although this, of course, depends entirely on what kind of text it is.
Also, I can't help but feel that your reply is less of a helpful suggestion of what I should do in my spare time, and more of a passive-aggressive demand. If I'm right about this, how come?
looks like it could be fun.
If you pre-order Ghosts, you get a special discount for the new Eminem album. Brilliant. :v:
"The most remarkable game I've experienced this year"
Yeah, I don't know what craveonline is but they just lost all credibility

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I'd play the everloving shit out of a CoD game where, every time you shot an enemy, you saw a three-second-clip of his family getting the news, or a thanksgiving table with an empty chair, or a child standing by a tombstone or something. Make the game haunting.
To be honest those visuals look great
